Thanks, but mine isn't a new picture. It was taken a long time ago. He died a few years ago. I'm sorry to mention it but I didn't want you to have the wrong impression.

Thank you so much Hyacinth! I just paid my first Vintage Coach bag, so excited. Now looking for 2nd vintage from Coach again. Hehe [emoji16]

It's genuine. I've seen at least one other bag from the same plant, month and year with the same upside-down G. Coach bags and especially creed and serial number stampings weren't always perfect especially in plants outside the US.

I thought so. Appreciate the help!

This is fake, right? Asking for a friend who just found this at a consignment store. I don't believe it is authentic, but get confused these days, since i heard Coach stopped using serial numbers? Is that true? Do they at least use a date code anymore? The stitching on this creed is horrible. I'll be shocked if this is authentic.

Here's a couple more. This is all the pics she sent me. This Horse and Carriage really looks wonky! lol! Please verify. Thank you

VERY fake - fake pattern and colors, fake emblem, fake hardware. We don't even need to see the creed on that one. But the fact that there's no serial number on an "older" creed patch (a problem depending on the size of the bag) is a red flag. The REALLY bad stitching is a major problem too.

Newer styles made after mid-2014 don't have serial numbers, and it IS a major problem. But those bags will have newer style creed patches, unless Coach really did them on the cheap and just stamped the pocket without any patch at all.

A consignment store has the same LEGAL responsibility as any other seller to be sure the items they're selling are genuine. Your friend needs to take it back and insist on a full refund, and the store needs to hand it back to the consignor and tell them "No thanks", and to make sure they DON'T accept any more consignments from that person. It's such an obvious fake that I'd be very leery about any other "designer" items that store is selling.

Could you help me authenticate this bag? I have never seen a Coach without the serial number. It measures 11" x 5 .5". TIA

Thank you for authenticating...or not.

This is a small tote so just make sure you are aware of its dimensions.

It looks fine. It's a Chelsea Metallic Leather Small Bag #46042. Smaller bags may or may not have creed patches and/or serial numbers.
